Microbial toxins pose a significant threat to the natural environment and all forms of life on planet earth. These biological organisms, such as enzymes, viruses or fragments wreak havoc on the environment and pose a health risk. Toxicity from bioaerosols has a negative impact on human life, causing acute adverse reactions, various types of illnesses, and carcinogenic disorders, among other issues. Although various aspects of bioaerosols have been studied, such as identification, quantification, dispersion, and epidemiology, bioaerosol research is still in its infancy, particularly in terms of understanding anthropogenic behavior. Most of the studies identify the negative impact of bioaerosols, albeit epidemiological evidence remains equivocal. Further, the regulatory enactments and legislative mechanisms for bioaerosol surveillance have yet to be implemented ineffectively in both developed and developing countries. In this overview, we evaluate the pathways and challenges of bioaerosols, highlight gaps in bioaerosol epidemiology, and discuss the public health implications of exposure to complex ecosystems. We also provide an overview of the current state of bioaerosol research, including sampling and enumeration procedures, qualitative and quantitative modeling, global statutory policies, and potential future approaches to addressing the challenges.
